The Dish on Deep Dish

Authentic Chicago deep dish pizza is worth every freakin' fat gram and every calorie. Authentic deep dish is not Pizza Hut, Pizzeria Unos, or Armand's in D.C. Authentic deep dish has a crust that's buttery, with cheese that runneth over, and is paired with a hearty zesty blend of tomatoes. Paul and I went to Giordano's yesterday, the mecca of Chicago deep dish pizza. The wait was an hour and fifteen minutes, but we waited. We were even able to place an advance order of our pizza so it was ready by the time we were seated . We loved every morsel of what we ate, we just couldn't finish it because the cheese was so filling.
